Forgot to post this from yesterday...
Chronicles of Blake With The Gimpy Leg - Episode 4232:
(The following takes place between 7:50 and 8:00pm at a Burger King drive thru)
Alas, here it is I patiently waiting as a Blakie does. After a long hot Texas day, craving a cold salad with some friggin chicken. I pull up to a local Burger King, politely say hello to the young lad on the intercom...
Lad: Hello, welcome to BK, can I take your order?
Me: Hey, how's it goin? Yeah, don't y'all have a salad with like... apples and chicken? (I can't remember who had this but it was crack)
Lad: A whuaaat???
Me: Hey, how's it goin? Yeah, don't y'all have a salad with like... apples and chicken? (I can't remember who had this but it was crack)
Lad: A whuaaat???
*NOTE: I'm not some crabby old man, but I was taught from an early age to sound professional when around a patron. So... this annoyed me right off that bat, so I shall now refer to him as "Scooter". Way to shoot for that $15 an hour Scooter.*
(continued...)
Me: A salad... apples and chicken?
Scooter: Uh... no.
Me: Okay... what kind of salads do you have? (their sign was horrendously organized, but we'll ignore that)
Scooter: Grilled or Crispy chicken.
Me: Grilled (mark my words, one day I will eat better)
Me: A salad... apples and chicken?
Scooter: Uh... no.
Me: Okay... what kind of salads do you have? (their sign was horrendously organized, but we'll ignore that)
Scooter: Grilled or Crispy chicken.
Me: Grilled (mark my words, one day I will eat better)
*a few minutes later as I am waiting at the window*
Me: (waiting.... and waiting.... and........ waiting)
Me: (waiting.... and waiting.... and........ waiting)
*Scooter is taking an odd amount of time to bust out a refrigerated salad, but during this time, a random co-worker pops her head out the window in a manner that I can only describe as a chicken.
She looks at me. I look at her. She turns her head and looks down the line of cars. Looks back at me.
...nothing happens, she just looks at me.
After a couple odd seconds, she then asks,
Girl: Did you get gas?
Me: Huh??
Girl: Did you just get gas?
Me: Yyyya...
Girl: Oh ok. *pops back inside, and then immediately hands me my salad.*
Girl: Did you get gas?
Me: Huh??
Girl: Did you just get gas?
Me: Yyyya...
Girl: Oh ok. *pops back inside, and then immediately hands me my salad.*
Special note:
1) My car does not smell like gas.
2) Emissions do not smell like gasoline.
3) Natural gas does not smell like gasoline.
4) and this might be important to know...
